Autism Friendly Performances
We aim for all performances of Through the Shortbread Tin to be Autism Friendly and neurodivergent audience members are welcome at all of our performances.

Chilled Performance
A chilled performance will have a supported Front of House experience, and takes a more casual approach to noise and movement in the auditorium, but the performance itself is unchanged. This performance is ideal for people who may find the usual FoH experience stressful, are keen to be aware of the content of the production in advance and are more at ease knowing they can go in and out of the auditorium during the show. This performance is for everybody and babes in arms are welcome (not walking or requiring their own seat).
Chilled performances are at the following dates and times:
Scottish Storytelling Centre, Edinburgh | Thu 20 & Sun 30 Aug 4.45pm
